Hello Anguses and welcome aboard the WCR crew. <img src="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0" /><br />
<br />
The Censusplus window doesn't have to be open and since it takes a lot of screen space, people generally keep it closed unless they using it to make changes or are looking at the gathered data on the current faction.<br />
<br />
If you tick both the auto-start and auto-census buttons on the options list, Censusplus will run in the background with no input required from you.<br />
<br />
As I said in my earlier post, I just prefer the manual operation. But it's just my personal preference, as is the fact that I also do my uploads manually while others rely on the UniUploader.<br />
<br />
Also, if you have any further questions, please ask. English is technically a trinary or tertiary language for me, so I occasionally manage to be unclear despite a fairly wide vocabulary and extended use experience (almost 30 years). <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" />http://www.warcraftrealms.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=37438#374381974ERFri Apr 20, 2012 12:48 pmhttp://www.warcraftrealms.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=37438#37438Re: How to use the addonhttp://www.warcraftrealms.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=37307#37307

Hello and welcome! <img src="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0" /><br />
<br />
Basically, yes. Your first submission has also already been successfully processed. Congratulations! <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /> Naturally, you are welcome to collect data on more than one realm, but that's not a requirement. Even data on just one faction is valuable, especially as many realms are very poorly covered, because there simply aren't enough Census users about.<br />
<br />
The prune and purge buttons are used more often by those who run a LOT of censuses as the manual upload has maximum file size of 10 MB. Which can be hit in under 2 days, if someone is pushing really hard and there are no problems with Battle.net / WoW. At the moment, I need a purge about once every 6 days. And nothing prevents you from purging often, if you like to keep the .lua file small, which does speed up the upload a bit. <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /><br />
<br />
As often as you like. <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /> However, you are adviced not to upload more than once within a 15 minute period, as the system might otherwise overwrite your earlier submission.<br />
<br />
The window can be closed and there are options for pretty much automatic operation in the options menu (in the upper right corner of the window). I prefer to operate manually, but that's just my personal preference, mostly due to the fact that I like occasional PvP and the addon gets disrupted by entering a BG, if not paused.<br />
<br />
Also, if you don't mind the spam, you can turn on the verbose mode to see what the addon is currently working on...<br />
<br />
I hope these answers helped and if you have more questions, ask away! <img src="images/smiles/icon_smile.gif" alt="Smile" border="0" /> In any case, happy censusing! <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /> Oh, and Happy New Year too! <img src="images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="Very Happy" border="0" /><br />

Wishes,<br />

I just installed the census addon and ran it on my main server today. Once each on horde and alliance. Also uploaded once after I ran it on both sides.<br />
<br />
Is that all you need to do? <br />
<br />
Are the prune and purge buttons ever used?<br />
<br />
How often should I grab a census on my server?<br />
<br />
Once I start it, will it run if I close the window or does it need to stay open?<br />
<br />
Just some questions I had after reading the FAQ and running the addon.<br />
<br />
